Abstract

In order to reduce the computational effort we develop a method for 3D-to-2D dimensionality reduction of scattering problems in photonics. Contrary to the `standard' Effective
Index Method the effective parameters of the reduced problem are always rigorously defined using the variational technique, based on the vectorial 3D Maxwell equations. Results for a photonic crystal slab waveguide show that this approach predicts the location of the bandgap and other spectral features much more precisely than any `standard' EIM approximation.
